CPR Anytime

Why is this Program Important?

Pediatric out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is a rare event associated with poor outcomes. The incidence of OHCA varies among countries, ranging from 2.28 to 18.0/100,000 persons. The incidence and outcomes after OHCA have worsened during the COVID pandemic. Knowing how to perform good CPR is critical in ensuring the potential for a positive outcome.

The CPR Anytime kit, available for both infant, and child/adult, conveys this information in a simple workshop in a box, teaching the necessary skills for CPR and AED usage that may end up saving a life.
